In this permanent, full-time role, you will develop and execute product reliability test plans and verification procedures based on design specifications. You will partner closely with R&D, Systems Engineering, Manufacturing, and Quality teams to ensure highly reliable, advanced medical systems are designed, verified, and launched successfully. What Your Day-to-Day Will Involve Lead System-Level Reliability: Drive reliability strategy and testing for complex electromechanical medical devices, ensuring robust product performance across the design lifecycle. Apply Advanced Methodologies: Utilize reliability engineering tools such as Weibull analysis, Reliability Modeling, Fault Tree Analysis, Accelerated Life Testing (ALT), HALT/HASS, and structured root cause analysis to drive data-based design decisions. Define Requirements: Establish reliability requirements, reliability growth plans, and demonstration strategies for NPI (New Product Introduction) programs and sustaining design changes; devise test protocols and author comprehensive test reports. Execute Testing: Design and execute reliability test protocols for mechanical, electrical, environmental, and software-driven subsystems across system, subsystem, and component levels. Cross-Functional Partnership: Partner with Systems Engineering and R&D to ensure proper linkage between design requirements, risk management, reliability verification, and validation activities. Analyze Field Data: Drive reliability insights through the analysis of field data, complaint trends, and nonconformance data to support product improvements and risk mitigation. Collaborate on Robustness: Work alongside R&D, Manufacturing Engineering, Supplier Quality, Regulatory Affairs, and Failure Analysis teams to resolve reliability issues. Build Infrastructure: Develop and implement reliability testing infrastructure, including custom fixtures and automated test setups. Champion Culture: Foster a data-driven reliability culture by mentoring engineers and promoting best practices in reliability engineering and statistical analysis. Maintain Compliance: Ensure alignment with ISO 13485, FDA Quality System Regulations (21 CFR 820), and applicable regulatory standards. EHS Alignment: Understand and adhere to standard corporate Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) policies. ## Related Videos - [Building a hypercar from scratch](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/607-building-a-hypercar-from-scratch) - [Are Classical Automation Frameworks Dead?
